Thought you might like that I managed to get Laser in last minute, I make it clear many times that the four-cylinder cars were teh most important - it's why the Capri II JPS is badged as a 1.6 and there's a 2.0S and the original Capri is a 1600GT XLR. Otherwise, it ends up being so V6-heavy and I wanted to avoid that.

I have to sign off the book today. Thank god for that.

For the Collectors edition Capri book will it be possible to request the same number as ive got for the TCYAPY Collectors edition (490) or does this have to follow sales quantities ?

I looked at it but it would have added around 10 pounds to the price as each copy needs be held and indexed, retrieved and sent. So I decided to keep the price lower and make more people happy! I'd view it like a car, chassis and engine numbers...
